On 21 February 1890, two woodsmen working in densely wooded Blenheim Swamp in southern Ontario, Canada, stumbled upon the dead body of a young Englishman who had been killed by two gunshot wounds to the head. He was identified as Frederick Benwell by a married couple, the Birchalls, who had entered into a business agreement with him. Birchall was later found guilty of the murder and hanged. Now, local residents of the area claim to hear and see things in these swamps late at night. The cache is a PB jar spraypainted green/brown. Approaching GZ from the east entrance is your best bet. Strangely, there has been reporting of GPS co-ords acting oddly when you get near ground zero. Is it Benwell's ghost?? Good luck and stay safe!! -Vantastic123 (P.S. bring some bug spray, Mosquitos get nasty in the summer)
